Sustainable building block made from RICE processing waste and alkali-activated materials<\/h2>\n\n
\n

The SUN.RICE project aims to up-scale a new type of eco-sustainable and cement-free building block made of agro-waste from rice processing (rice husk, RH). Moreover, alternative aggregates and Alkali Activated Materials-AAMs (based on rice husk ash-RHA) will be used, to decrease the carbon footprint and to improve the insulating properties of final materials.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

About SUN.RICE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Specific objectives and technological applications<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

The project focuses on tackling two main problems: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(1) Reducing the impact of the construction industry on climate change, promoting alternative raw materials, by-products from agro-industry (rice-waste in replacement of natural aggregates) and AAMs instead of Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(2) Reintroducing agro-waste in the construction value chain. Waste that is conventionally dumbed, burned or composted, with significant negative environmental consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
